Now, it's not as bad as people are claiming, but we'll get to that in a bit. We also have the merger of the Tor project and the Tails OS project, which is really cool, and Ubuntu 24.10 beta is now available, as well as the Cosmic Desktop has reached an alpha 2 that is now available for download and testing. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world. So let's jump right into Your Source for Linux GNews.
